"Moreski has a strong, conversational narrative that makes each poem flow nicely into the next[...] Moreski is a poet to watch both now and in the future."- Kendall A . Bell, Author of Dollhouse

"Cord paints vivid pictures with his deliberate words. This chapbook [Stay Afloat Inside] is a real treasure, washed up on the shores of New Jersey. Do yourself a favor and get your hands on a copy of this collection of honest and true poetry. Then find where Cord is reading and make the trip. It's pure magic."- Nathanael Stolte, Author of 9 By NWS

"He is forceful, passionate, he throws himself into the delivery- but he is also a laid back, unassuming guy. He is, in person, like his poetry. His poems are straightforward, but read them twice."- Elynn Alexander, Full of Crow Press
